Me: I live in Silicon Valley with my wife, child and cat. I have worked at Microsoft since I graduated from College, both in the Macintosh Business Unit on products such as Outlook Express, Entourage, IE, and Virtual PC and in Windows Live on Hotmail, Calendar and People. I am currently a Principal Lead Program Manager on the Windows Live Social Networking team. I basically manage a team of Program Managers responsible for delivering features to support our web and client applications. I've been blogging since 2001 and like to play around with .NET in my spare time working on projects such as dasBlog (the blog that powers this site) and Send to SmugMug (an application for uploading photos to SmugMug). I blog about a number of technology and productivity related topics.

So last night Lora and I went to SBC Park (I liked it when it was called Pacific Bell Park better) to see Dave Matthews Band. This must have been like the 6th DMB concert we've been to. My first DMB concert was at the Irving Plaza in 1993. Back then it was just UVA kids and a few other enlightened souls. Satellite was the big song back then.
The best thing about this concert? Jem and Black Eyed Peas opened. It was the best part of the concert. SBC is way to big and awkward for Concerts though. Most of the DMB shows I've seen are at outdoor amphitheaters which are better suited. SBC Pack is a place that you need a band like U2 cause they are big enough to put on a real huge and exciting show (and they probably need a football stadium anyway).
Anyway, Jem was just fantastic. Black Eyed Peas were also great, but it was so closed that Fergie wore the most clothing I've ever seen on her .
Oh, it was freaking freezing. Dammed San Francisco Weather.
